Revenge of the Hideous Lady (Xyla Quest) novel Chapter 523

There were all sorts of delicacies on the coffee table, all of which were Xyla Quest’s favorites.

The dishes included beef noodle, stir-fried vegetables, braised sea cucumber with scallions, stewed pigeon soup, pumpkin porridge, and eggplant with minced pork.

“Did you order all these?” Xyla asked.

“Yeah. They’re all your favorites,” Stanley Batton said before tugging at Xyla’s hand and sitting down. He then sat Xyla on one of his legs. “Did you miss me? Hmm?” He asked.

His warm breath spread across Xyla’s neck, making her feel as if an electric current was flowing through her entire body.

Her heart began to beat wildly in that instant.

“Yeah. How about you?” Xyla nodded gently.

After that, Stanley shifted her body such that she was sitting right on his lap. He then circled his arms around her waist and pressed his forehead against hers. “I miss you… A lot. I wished I could be an accessory you wear on your body.”

When Xyla heard the sweet things he said, she felt extremely happy on the inside.

“You are such a sweet-talker.” Xyla smiled widely.

“What I said is true…” Stanley said.

“Okay. I’ll force myself to believe you…” Xyla said.

She was enjoying this sweet romance a lot.

“Are you free for the rest of the afternoon?” Stanley asked.

“Yeah… I’ve finished all my work,” Xyla said.

“Why don’t you stay here with me?” He asked.

“Why didn’t I realize you were this clingy before?” Xyla asked.

“It’s not too late to realize it now,” Stanley said.

“Fine.” Xyla nodded.

“It’s decided then. I’ll pass you my laptop and tablet later. You can use them to play games or watch videos. It’s up to you,” Stanley said.
